Hard to say without seeing your swing, bit an over the top action almost always happens because the back swing started with the arms and the shoulders first. When you get to your backswing position at the top, try to focus on starting the swing with your lower body by shifting the weight to your left sid and dropping the club down on the inside. The movement from the top is more of a body turn then an arm swing.the arms should drop down into the slot at the same time as the body turns and the weight shifts. Hope this helps, good luck!

A big part of OTT is unhinging the wrists too early at the top of you backswing. Practice the pump drill coming from the inside.

I agree with this drill... The one I like is the 9 to 3 swing to start, and progressively getting a little longer, I usually use a hardcover or alignment rod to make sure I'm not coming too far from the outside.... It's a variation of Jim Flick's 2x4 drill but it's a little safer on your club.
